Hospital Emergency Incident Command System (HEICS)
&
Hospital Incident Command System (HICS)
|
Overview
|
We can provide on-site training for your staff in either the older HEICS
or the new HICS. Training can be accomplished in as little as one day,
or can be expanded to a full three days of training to cover the system in
depth. If you would like to have a table-top exercise to complete the
training, the minimum time required is two days. |
Preparation
|
Before we do any training, we spend time reviewing your existing
emergency operations plan to see how you have structured your organization
for emergencies. We then review your risk & threat assessment, to
determine what types of disasters and emergencies you need to plan most
effectively for. In most cases, we will discuss local concerns with
your staff, as well as with local emergency management officials. Finally,
once we arrive at your location, we review your physical plant, assess your
emergency operations center capabilities and any concerns we may observe.

On-Site Training
|
Once we have collected all of our information, we then prepare a lesson
plan tailored to fit your needs and desires. Our training is scheduled
to fit your needs, both in duration and scheduling. Our training is
never an off-the-shelf, standard package, but a truly custom program.
We provide information your staff can use and relate to. |
NIMS Supplement
|
With the increased awareness of the role the National Incident
Management system will play in the future, many hospitals have shown a
desire to include a NIMS component in their HEICS training. We can
include NIMS as a part of your HEICS training, even including a full, 4 hour
NIMS FEMA certification program. Upon completion, all attendees who
pass the final exam will receive a FEMA IS-700 certificate. |
